Club Jr. Rifle Survey

OCSA members, guests, and friends. We would like to get your opinion on restarting our Jr. Rifle program. The Jr. Rifle program was very successful in the past and George Wilson is seeking information on the level of interest and if anyone wants to help.

The Junior Rifle program is for people 10-18 years of age. The program works with experienced instructors and mainly uses .22 cal rifles on our 50ft indoor range. You do not need to be a club member to participate. There is a $5 per session fee to cover some operational costs. Students should bring their own eye and ear protection. If there is sufficient interest, some travel to other clubs for matches may be available.

Please only answer the survey once so we can get an accurate picture of the interest. The survey will run until the June 2021 membership meeting.

Survey Link: https://forms.gle/Ndt7TpgU2H6FqSy4A

If you have a junior interested or you would like to help please let George know. After completing the survey go to the junior rifle section of the rifle webpage and complete the information request form.
